In 2022, the City of Prince George repaired about two per cent of the city’s sidewalk network.

In 2022, the City of Prince George rehabilitated 3,095 metres of sidewalks – roughly two per cent of the city’s total sidewalk network, city council heard on Monday.

“We still have a long way to go, to get to where we need to be,” Coun. Ron Polillo said. “This is good work and we need to continue to invest, as we heard loud and clear from the citizens of Prince George, this money into roads and sidewalks.” In addition to the $1.25 million for sidewalk rehabilitation, city council earmarked $400,000 in the 2022 budget for new sidewalks. That resulted in the construction of 633 m of new sidewalks in three locations: Kerry Street from Fifth Avenue to Rainbow Drive, Wilson Crescent from Upland Street to Perry Park, and Baker Road from Foster Road to Calhoun Crescent.Coun. Tim Bennett said the sidewalk near his office was rehabilitated and “the photos don’t do it justice.

44.4 LANE-KM OF ROADS REHABILITATED The increase to the sidewalk rehabilitation budget was offset by a reduction in the city’s road rehabilitation budget from $5.95 million to $5.5 million. That $5.5 million amount was estimated by city staff to “provide financial sustainability of the City’s road infrastructure,” McIntosh wrote in his report.The thin-lift overlay method means a 40-50 mm layer of asphalt is added to the existing roadway to treat minor surface deficiencies.
